i've had several common types of mushroom and found them to be fine cooked as a add-on to a meal..chicken of the woods is a yellow shelf mushroom thats nice fried in butter,same with inky caps before they get "inky" puffballs the same,fried but they need to be young,morels are found on canoe trips and go with lake trout..what i don't eat are mushrooms that look like the ones you get in stores as there are a few that without doing spore prints and such can cause nasty reactions.i would not eat any mushroom in a survival situation,in fact i don't think i would eat any wild plant.
